  • Chapter 21 the Chemistry of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
    Instructor Supplemental Solutions to Problems © 2010 Roberts and Company Publishers Chapter 21 The Chemistry of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Solutions to In-Text Problems 21.1 (b) (d) (e) (h) 21.2 (a) butanenitrile (common: butyronitrile) (c) isopentyl 3-methylbutanoate (common: isoamyl isovalerate) The isoamyl group is the same as an isopentyl or 3-methylbutyl group: (d) N,N-dimethylbenzamide 21.3 The E and Z conformations of N-acetylproline: 21.5 As shown by the data above the problem, a carboxylic acid has a higher boiling point than an ester because it can both donate and accept hydrogen bonds within its liquid state; hydrogen bonding does not occur in the ester. Consequently, pentanoic acid (valeric acid) has a higher boiling point than methyl butanoate. Here are the actual data: INSTRUCTOR SUPPLEMENTAL SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS • CHAPTER 21 2 21.7 (a) The carbonyl absorption of the ester occurs at higher frequency, and only the carboxylic acid has the characteristic strong, broad O—H stretching absorption in 2400–3600 cm–1 region. (d) In N-methylpropanamide, the N-methyl group is a doublet at about d 3. N-Ethylacetamide has no doublet resonances. In N-methylpropanamide, the a-protons are a quartet near d 2.5. In N-ethylacetamide, the a- protons are a singlet at d 2. The NMR spectrum of N-methylpropanamide has no singlets. 21.9 (a) The first ester is more basic because its conjugate acid is stabilized not only by resonance interaction with the ester oxygen, but also by resonance interaction with the double bond; that is, the conjugate acid of the first ester has one more important resonance structure than the conjugate acid of the second.

  • Metabolic-Hydroxy and Carboxy Functionalization of Alkyl Moieties in Drug Molecules: Prediction of Structure Influence and Pharmacologic Activity
    molecules Review Metabolic-Hydroxy and Carboxy Functionalization of Alkyl Moieties in Drug Molecules: Prediction of Structure Influence and Pharmacologic Activity Babiker M. El-Haj 1,* and Samrein B.M. Ahmed 2 1 Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, University of Science and Technology of Fujairah, Fufairah 00971, UAE 2 College of Medicine, Sharjah Institute for Medical Research, University of Sharjah, Sharjah 00971, UAE; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 6 February 2020; Accepted: 7 April 2020; Published: 22 April 2020 Abstract: Alkyl moieties—open chain or cyclic, linear, or branched—are common in drug molecules. The hydrophobicity of alkyl moieties in drug molecules is modified by metabolic hydroxy functionalization via free-radical intermediates to give primary, secondary, or tertiary alcohols depending on the class of the substrate carbon. The hydroxymethyl groups resulting from the functionalization of methyl groups are mostly oxidized further to carboxyl groups to give carboxy metabolites. As observed from the surveyed cases in this review, hydroxy functionalization leads to loss, attenuation, or retention of pharmacologic activity with respect to the parent drug. On the other hand, carboxy functionalization leads to a loss of activity with the exception of only a few cases in which activity is retained. The exceptions are those groups in which the carboxy functionalization occurs at a position distant from a well-defined primary pharmacophore. Some hydroxy metabolites, which are equiactive with their parent drugs, have been developed into ester prodrugs while carboxy metabolites, which are equiactive to their parent drugs, have been developed into drugs as per se.

  • Food and Drug Administration 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm
    Sent via Electronic and U.S. Mail October 13, 2015 James R. Hunter Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305) Food and Drug Administration 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061 Rockville, MD 20852 Re: Docket No. FDA-2015-N-0045 for International Drug Scheduling; Convention on Psychotropic Substances; Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs; Ketamine; Phenazepam; Etizolam; 1-cyclohexyl-4-(1,2-diphenylethyl)-piperazine (MT-45); N-(1-Phenethylpiperidin- 4-yl)-N-phenylacetamide (Acetylfentanyl); α-Pyrrolidinovalerophenone (α-PVP); 4- Fluoroamphetamine (4-FA); para-Methyl-4-methylaminorex (4,4’-DMAR); para- Methoxymethylamphetamine (PMMA); 2-(ethylamino)-2-(3-methoxyphenyl)- cyclohexanone (Methoxetamine or MXE); Request for Comments Dear Mr. Hunter: This letter responds to the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) request for comments that appeared in the Federal Register on October 5, 2015, concerning International Drug Scheduling. The Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) represents 237 public research universities, land-grant institutions, state university systems, and affiliated organizations. Many of our member institutions have veterinary and medical schools and nearly all our institutions have researchers and students who conduct biomedical research. On behalf of our institutional membership, APLU appreciates this opportunity to provide the FDA with comments. APLU strongly objects to any attempt to alter the international regulation of ketamine that would result in increased difficulty for biomedical researchers to use this drug for legitimate and appropriate treatments. The United States currently classifies ketamine as a Schedule III drug under the Controlled Substance Act (CSA). As such, strict regulations and safeguards are already in place to prevent its illegal use. As known to FDA, Schedule I drugs are defined as those with no currently acceptable medical use, a lack of accepted safety for use under medical supervision, and a high potential for abuse.
